this type of of legs is totally normal.
no treatment is required except proper diet.
kindly continue vitamin d supplements if you are not taking the child in sunlight.
if proper diet is being given then there is no need to worry about any calcium supplement.
the curved legs/ bend legs usually take a normal shape by two years to three years of age.
if in doubt then meet the doctor.
